Despite already being all too familiar with Poke Bowl, it was practically inevitable that I was eventually going to make my way here. While my numerous experiences at their locations in Stonestown and Colma may have been a little uneven (mediocre at the former, pretty solid at the latter), there just aren't as many options around as there used to be. Not to mention the fact that, based on my more recent trips to their spot in Stonestown, I couldn't help but wonder if Poke Bowl had started to fall off after all of these years! Compared to the one in Colma (the one in the Stonestown food court is nothing alike), this location is surprisingly large. Even with a section blocked off from customers (it looked like they use it for storage), they actually still have quite a few tables available for anyone looking to dine-in. Beyond that, though, everything else about this place was all too familiar. To the right of the counter, you'll find their usual menu cards for you to mark off what size poke bowl you want, the types of poke, and whatever toppings that you then hand to the workers. As for the menu, it features a couple of less commonly seen things, but it's pretty standard otherwise. There's no shortage of options either - once you've selected the size of your bowl/number of scoops, you then choose from six different bases, five types of sides, sixteen varieties of poke (they also have cooked bowls), almost a dozen sauces, and fifteen toppings. For my order, I went with a LARGE POKE BOWL ($16.25 for 4 scoops) with Salmon, Tuna, Imitation Crab, and Hamachi (+$2) over White Rice & Mixed Greens, and topped it with Cucumber, Jalapeno, White Onion, Seaweed Salad, Avocado (+$1.25), Kimchee, Oshinko, Green Onion, Ginger, Masago, Wasabi, Fried Garlic Chips, Furikake, and their Original Mild Poke and Ponzu Sauces. Now, maybe it's just because I haven't had a good poke bowl in a long time, but I thought this was great! While the flavors weren't amazing, the overall portion was generous and they certainly didn't skimp on any of the crab or the fish, all of which tasted fresh. What's more, there was plenty of the sides and toppings, too. So much so, in fact, that it piled up really high...until it got smashed down by the lid. If I had one complaint, it'd be that the sauces were really acidic. I'm sure a lot of it came from the ponzu, but it was more than I would've expected. Also, parking can be a little hit or miss as well, but it's hard to hold that against this place. Since this Poke Bowl is a little out of my way, it's hard for me to say definitively how often I'll be back, but when the craving arises, I wouldn't think twice about returning. read more

This is my absolute favorite poke restaurant!! They have a great variety of poke bowls, poke salads, add ons, and the seafood is always fresh. The restaurant is clean, the staff is welcoming and the service is fast. If you want fresh poke and are in the Oceanview Ingleside area, you must give Poke Bowl a try! read more

Last year I used to eat here at least 1x/week bc it's so close to my house and I was in a heavy poke phase. Wasn't mind blowing, but the portions were huge, I loved their imitation crab scoop which was massive, and it was super easy parking. Only stopped bc I was out of my poke phase, but I'd give it 3-4 stars at the time. Cut to today, not only are the portions tiny but the proteins look - weird. I got 3 scoops: really weird semi-cooked? tuna that's already in some sort of strange sauce (not the sauce I ordered...), salmon looks VERY sus, and some really dried out imitation crab they gave me maybe 2 tablespoons of. I can't even tell if my 3 sauces were included. They don't offer masago, oshinko, or sesame anymore. Rice is not great, tastes like they made it in the rice cooker last night or something. What happened?! Guy working there was super nice, but c'mon. Bring the old way back!! This pic is what you get for $20... read more

Ordered online and was ready for pick up in just a few minutes! They're fast and definitely pack in the ingredients so is a decent deal for quantity. The fish quality is fine and there's lots of options for toppings and sauce. I do like the konjac noodle! A pretty good option for quick and not too expensive poke! read more

I was craving a refreshing meal and ended up finding this place. My friend and I went here on a Saturday around 2:40pm for lunch and there was no wait! We got the Medium and also the Large sized build-your-own poke bowls. The Medium bowl allows for 3 scoops of fish while the Large bowl allows 4 scoops. They give large scoops if you choose the BYO option and the overall portion size was big too. I noticed for certain sections, you can add as much as you want with no extra cost! All the food tasted and looked fresh too. I'd recommend this place! This might be my new favorite place to get poke. Their portion size is larger than other poke places I've been to, food was good, they have lots of tables to sit at inside, and I love how much variety they have here. read more

Picked up a bowl on a Friday afternoon just after lunch. I didn't have to wait long even though there was only one worker. You fill out your order on the piece of paper to the right of the poke bar and hand it to the worker when you're ready. I see the bad reviews mentioning portions are bad and the massive amount of flies in the restaurant, but i didn't experience either. I didn't see any flies and i was happy with the portion i received, a matter of opinion though. Oh but if I saw all the flies myself, i would probably have given less stars too. read more

Solid poke spot! You order with a paper and build your own poke bowl. They give very generous portions and don't skimp on toppings. I like how you can get lots of types of toppings added on for free including seaweed salad which is usually extra at other poke shops. It's fairly priced for the amount they give you. A large was enough for two meals for me. Overall I'd definitely come back to get poke and next time I'll try other types of fish/toppings! read more

So I PreOrdered my Poke bowl from home around 1pm. I received notifications for estimated time for pick - up, yada yada yada. Then when I received my Ready for pick up alert by 1:30ish, I go to counter & nothing. Nothing was done. The order person even asked me "are you at the right place?" My expression was like WTF!?! Apparently the TABLET wasn't charged, so I had to wait for quite sometime for my order to pop up on the system which took along time cause my fam was wondering what was taking sooo long (they already have their food from another restaurant & they didnt even pre-order). When my order was handed to me no apologies were said & I bluntly said I want to get a coke and I'm handing her my credit card. She handed me the soda for free and said no it's OK. So I have to admit I enjoyed my Poke bowl order and next time I will not do the Online PreOrder. read more

I ordered a large poke bowl, and while I appreciated the generous portion of sides, I felt the overall flavor and freshness could have been better. The ingredients were decent, but I was expecting a bit more vibrancy in taste. Not a bad experience, but there's room for improvement. The service was decent nothing to complain about and there was plenty of seating. read more

Poke Bowl - Seafood Near Me - San Francisco, California

Their Ocean location is still takeout-only, closing off all the indoor seating options. You order via paper and pencil, marking off boxes of options for fish/toppings, and had to to the employee to prepare. I ordered a medium bowl, which comes with three* scoops of fish. The portion size is decent, but the toppings weren't fresh. The carrots were all dried out, and the tuna looked like cat food. The rice was overly chewy, probably had too much water and left in the rice cooker a long time. They probably thrive on being the only poke place in the neighborhood and can satisfy the craving if you're not willing to go far. read more

My friend wanted poke but Burlingame was too far for him to drive. So I gave him a few options and he choose this location as it's close by both our houses, easy parking (street meter & residential) and have sitting so we can eat and chat. I haven't been back since the pandemic (see previous review) This time, our orders was full to the fullest. It was stacked with goodies of our choice. I was impressed by the quality AND quantity they scooped. They definitely did not skimped on us. I even came back for a second time after a week by myself. And again they did not disappoint. Another plus, their prices are not as expensive as other places. I'm glad they didn't raise it so much it would break your pocket. But it does make a HUGE DIFFERENCE from ordering online and in person ordering. read more

I'm really surprised by all the negative reviews. This place is the fastest thing I can get delivered to my house so I order it frequently. Rarely, they will make a mistake, and I will get a credit for it. But it's generally a reliable source of a good normal meal. Not fancy. Not exceptional. But dependably very good. Maybe the service is terrible or unfriendly when you go there in person. I empathize. So just get it delivered, like I do. Then you won't have to worry about communication issues or weird conversations. They'll have what you want "in writing" so they'll clearly know what to make. I usually get a salad with regular tuna, salmon, and "crab", with spicy mayo and mild poke sauce. Usually with some avocado. It's a nice lunch or dinner when I don't feel like cooking. read more

Food is ok but the portion is not consistent. I came a few times at 9:10-9:15pm to get my late dinner bc my daughter gets off from gymnastics practice at 9pm. The first few time when I came, the lady staffs let me place my order and told me that they closed at 9:30pm. Tonight I came around the same time, it's this new guy I've never seen. He refused to take the order and said they've closed. It's not even closing time yet. If it was a sit-down diner, I'd respect the closing time and wouldn't go in if it's less than 45 min from the closing time so that I know I won't make the staffs get off late. But this is a poke bowl place. It literally only takes a couple of min to put ingredients together for a bowl! Btw, I saw a big fly flying around the foods. read more

Poke Bowl - A fly on the bottle - Seafood Near Me - San Francisco, California

My favorite place to get poke. Best thing about this place is the portions are also way better than the Stonestown location. It is the main reason I go here all the time now! read more

A pretty typical poke bowl joint where you pick your base, proteins, veggies, sauces and toppings. At least typical nowadays; we should be thankful poke is so prevalent compared to when it was relatively obscure on the mainland. They have some nice little touches like offering kimchi, which turns out goes great in a poke bowl. Poke Bowl w/ Tuna, Salmon, Octopus, Shrimp: The tuna and salmon were raw while the shrimp and octopus were cooked. Seemed fresh enough. There was a tiny bone in one salmon cube and a shell on one shrimp, so that felt pretty sloppy. But no harm, since I caught it before eating. The veggies too seemed fresh. I got the spicy poke sauce, which had a little kick, but wasn't all that spicy. I really like how they offered kimchi and pickled radish for toppings, which tasted great against the poke bowl. Unfortunately, they were kinda stingy on the fried garlic though, despite me asking for a lot. I'm a big fan of crunchy toppings, but that texture option was very lacking here. read more

Come here for all my poke. Delicious food and nice portions. Service is nice and quick too.

Gotta catch'em all! Nah, some! In a Poké Bowl! Reminds me of a pokémon game that's similar to the title of an eatery. Been checking this place out many times and thought I would give an eatery a try. A couple of female Asian staff members did a pleasant job taking care of any of us in just a few minutes. Of course, all I need is to put a check on what I like to order on the order form. If you're like me, choose a salad bowl and select more veggie options. Greens are healthier than the tastier raw seafood and meat options. Then, choose different ingredients to show you're more adventurous. Though I included wasabi to cleanse the palate, the light green painful stuff was still worth it. No time and money for appetizers and desserts. Just gotta love to customize my poké container. Oh, and glad they accept cash. read more

Here's what I stand by: any poke restaurant owner can reach out to a reputable seafood vendor to request for high quality cuts of seafood- prep em up and it'd be fire.. so I never base my opinion on just the quality of the fish. It's really the rice that plays the x-factor in a poke bowl. If I see sushi rice subbed for the plain white rice option, I'd give this place a second try! I wanna taste the love from the sushi rice prepping, I can eat Zojirushi rice at home any day! Wife and I got large poke bowls off DoorDash so this review is based solely on the food rather than the physical establishment. *One weird note is we ordered around 6:45PM Sun 4/2/23 but Yelp was showing this place was closed. Their current hours show Mon-Sat 10:30AM-11:00AM? Owner of the business might want to edit their Yelp page! Mine: white rice // sweet corn, cucumber // salmon, spicy tuna, scallop, spicy crab // spicy poke and spicy mayo sauce // wakame, oshinko, green onions, massago, furikake, garlic chips, sesame seeds (hers was similar: salmon, tuna, spicy tuna, and spicy crab with spicy mayo and ponzu) Pros- really filling and affordable, bowls are packed to the rim, and they're on UberEats/DoorDash for convenience Cons- lack of flavor (the rice and the sauces), quality of the fish is mediocre, carbs to fish/toppings ratio was pretty carb heavy, nothing really stood out from the bowl read more

I have to say that this location's quality of service and food has drastically diminished overtime. I'm a local who has been going here pretty often ever since the time they opened. Used to love this place because they were very generous with portions (fish, sauce, and toppings) and staff used to be very friendly too. However in the last few months, I've noticed that the new staff have really been skimping, especially with the fish and sauce. When the place was still good, I used to order a small and get a generous portion of fish and sauce. Now, I order a medium and I get less fish than I used to get with the small... Instead, now they stuff the bowl with rice, and give such a small portion of fish. I'm not paying for a huge bowl of rice and a few bits of fish... Not to mention the same worker who receives the paper order, preps the food, and also checks out at the register (pretty unsanitary since they touch so many different things). The toppings and fish are exposed to the air and there were flies flying over it. Seems understaffed, overpriced because of the amount of fish you get, and also unsanitary. Disappointing considering I used to really love this place. Probably won't be visiting again anytime soon. read more

This place was ok; the salmon was fatty and smooth, but the tuna did not seem the most fresh. The rice was definitely stale and hard. The large bowl with an extra scoop is a good size. I was hungry and I couldn't finish it. Our DoorDash delivery came about 10 minutes early. The total cost was about $50 total (including tax, tips) for two large bowls each with an extra scoop of fish. See my photos for details! read more

Quality and care have really suffered in recent years. Used to love this place and come often (prior review was unquestionably five stars around when they opened). Last visit was my last. New guy took five minutes to painstakingly prepare the bowls for the couple in front of me (each), then the woman who appeared to be his superior, seeing that I had been waiting a really long time, decided the solution was to hurriedly prepare my bowl in under a minute, missed the extra scoop but still tried to charge me for it, half scoops of the toppings, many missed the bowl entirely, 90% salad, 20 bucks. Pretty pathetic. Oh, and using the same plastic gloves to handle cash then make a bowl without putting on new ones? Ew kids. Ew. read more

3.5; this place is pretty decent. I must say I like that they have kelp noodles. First time I have ever seen it, but it's low carbs and good for people who are doing ketogenic. The texture is crunchy. You can only pick 2 sauces. Small - 2 scoops of protein Medium - 3 scoops *my choice* (shrimp, salmon, spicy crab) Large - 4 scoops Select as many toppings as you want, there's only a few you have to pay extra for. The seating area is usually empty so it's a great place to study and eat. I'm glad this place is here, I always wanted to try their poke bowl as they have it displayed on their window but haven't had it for months . Service is pretty quick. Bathroom is available. This place is good, but I have had better tasting proteins. There is a slight blandness even when I have chosen different options of as sauces. read more

Poke Bowl - Poke Bowl - Medium - Seafood Near Me - San Francisco, California

Placed my order via Yelp and by far this is one of the worst poke bowl I've ever had. They were out of the seared albacore and hamachi around 9 pm which is completely understandable. Staff compensated for the out of stock item by offering add-ons which is a nice touch. However, I order two medium bowl and indicated mild poke sauce for both orders. Even during pickup I reminded staff on the sauces I indicated on my order. Staff assured me it's packed. Unpacked both poke to find out neither poke bowl had any sauce. Paid for an extra side of the garlic red onion sauce and didn't get that either. Rice was hard and definitely not poke rice with vinegar and all the fixings just plain rice... So I had no choice other than to eating the protein/salmon (like sashimi) dipped in soy sauce and wasabi. Sad that I gave this spot another shot but definitely a hard pass. read more

After a really good workout down the street, my friend and I needed a post-workout meal. We decided to go here! I remember I was deterred from going here when it first opened because I knew someone who got really bad food poisoning. I thought enough time passed, though. What I like about this place is there's an order form. I find it to be really efficient, rather than standing there and verbalizing what you want. I went with a large poke bowl (spicy crab, salmon, spicy tuna, hamachi). I haven't seen many poke places offer hamachi!! I think it's $2 extra, so eh. I will say in terms of portions, they were generous with the crab, but not as generous with the fish. As for the freshness, I felt the fish tasted pretty fresh! I felt full after eating my bowl, but I got the "large" and had a side of miso soup with it. It makes me wonder how full I would be if I got a small or medium. I'm definitely coming back, though! read more

Man oh man I am the most indecisive person when it comes to picking a restaurant but I will absolutely always be down for some poke. I came across Poke Bowl on DoorDash mostly for the reasonable price and quick delivery. My food indeed arrived super fast - 16 minutes after ordering! But the bowl itself was mid. I ordered a medium bowl with salmon and spicy tuna, various toppings, and unagi sauce. First off, the tuna was not spicy. Second, I personally like my poke bowls with lighter sauce but idk if I chose the wrong sauce or what but this bowl felt unseasoned. I will note that after adding some sriracha it tasted a lot better but I shouldn't have to dose my meal in hot sauce for it to taste good. That being said, the portion was still pretty big. The bowl wasn't bad but it wasn't great - there's definitely better options out there. read more

Poke Bowl seems to have been hit hard during the beginning of the Pandemic. Once it re-opened, I was eager to come back more frequently to be a loyal patron of their business. I have noticed that the crew that they hire has a high turnover, as I did not recognize the new members during the last two times I went back from each other. I also noticed that the quality of their fish isn't as fresh when compared to some of the other poke places I frequent within the East Bay. The portion size, as well, has seemed to be fairly stingy, as they really measure out the flat surface of a scoop. All-in-all, it has become a bit more difficult to justify paying $13-15 for a medium to large bowl that isn't filled to the bring or with fresh/quality ingredients. Quite honestly, both times, I have noticed that the was cross contamination (vegetables within the fish; sauce on the counter, and toppings dropped into the containers of other containers). Although this may be expected at a Poke shop, Poke Bowl does not assure it's customers that they are clean and detailed oriented. read more

Just bought a poke bowl for lunch. The food portion is definitely smaller than before. The environment is fair -- you can see flies around the cashier.

Food itself was good, consistent with other locations. Two things: One, the flies. It's a problem for sanitary reasons, and they disturb customers who decide to eat within the establishment.

I was craving a bowl from them and it would have been my second time coming to this place and I had just moved to this neighborhood one year ago. The first time i came here I did not order because of issues with flies all over the food. I came around another time and this time it seemed more clean inside and better so i ordered my first bowl. When i came back recently It was about 5 flies at least all over the scallop and tuna, etc. I was close to ordering bc the meat i wanted was on the other side but, I did not want to get sick it is a food risk. Ive been working in the food industry ever since I started ever working and that is for sure a food risk. I know some places that have covers on their food bc they also had issues w flies. Hoping they will do something about the flies as they carry all kinds of diseases! read more

Nice location if you're working, and looking for something light. My poke bowl consisted of salmon, crab, shrimp, brown rice, with cucumber and some veggies. Also with Unagi sauce, which is closer to a teriyaki sauce. Really good and flavorful, wasn't too heavy so I was able to finish out the day without a food coma. I will surely come here again once I'm in the area, enjoy! Ps. I hope they have the s'mores next time ( a dessert on their menu) probably the only thing I could complain about at the moment, they didn't have it this time around. read more

I've been craving poke pre-COVID-19 and would have never guessed that I'd ever get a chance to eat another bowl again. I've heard good things about Poke Bowl, but was hesitant to order through UberEats because of the lack of IRL experience. The poke and salad greens tasted fresh and the portions were generous. I did ask for my sauce to be placed in a separate container, but I'm glad that by the time I was finished with my bowl, the remaining liquids weren't much. Looking forward to going in person and ordering! read more
